Empty seats at Aston Villa as Champions League pricing policy massively backfires
Story updated
The story in brief
32-second readThere was a huge backlash from Aston Villa fans when their club announced Champions League prices for the 2024/25 season. Prices set from £70 to £82 for season ticket holders for each home game.
Whilst for Aston Villa fans (members and others) without season tickets, they had to pay £85 to £97 for each Champions League ticket. Wednesday night saw Villa Park host its first home Champions League match in 18 months and I was amazed to see empty seats.
This is despite Aston Villa working on a much reduced capacity due to development work on the stadium. A crowd of only 34,705 including a couple of thousand Fenerbache fans as Aston Villa fans voted with their wallets.
